"Its initial setup process is straightforward."
"This solution gives us important information about the utilization of protocols, particularly in terms of how often they are used."
"For managing the traffic, it provides you a response about whether the traffic is down, up, or heavy, which is a very powerful feature. It has a good response time. We have been using this solution for many years, and we don't have any problem with this solution."
"The solution's most valuable feature is its traffic analysis."
"In terms of the implementation, we've actually used SAM, the server and application monitoring tools. The network configuration tools are very useful in terms of bulk upgrading switches and infrastructure. Also, the Network Traffic Analyzer was extremely useful to track down errant users soaking up bandwidth."
"As it offers enterprise solutions, it has all the essential features for business."
"They have instructional videos and other information available on the site to assist you with learning it."
"The most valuable features are the bandwidth analyzer, the monitoring, the network analyzer, it has overall good performance, and an easy deployment."

"The bandwidth for its front-end version needs enhancement."
"It has an old-fashioned interface."
"They need to have some automation models embedded in them."
"It's very hard to install materials. You need a lot of documentation. They should make it easier to install and configure the solution."

"There is room for improvement on the setup side."
"It is very slow to pick the dynamics of the network."
"I would like to see better customization capabilities."
"I'm expecting to see a little bit more artificial intelligence and machine learning algorithms. They need a bit more sophistication in that."
"It does not flow. It cannot do our metric performance monitoring. So it is very limited. They can do it but in a very limited fashion. It is only good for SNMP-based alerts."
"The problem is that SolarWinds is trying to bolt in too much and that can leave bugs, which you have to then sort out, leaving the product unstable. SolarWinds needs to try and slow down and improve the stability of the product, as opposed to bringing out more and more features."
"As people always complain about the pricing for SolarWinds NetFlow Traffic Analyzer, it's an area for improvement in the solution. People find it expensive. Another area for improvement in SolarWinds NetFlow Traffic Analyzer is support, as it could be better."
"They should work on the configuration of the Log Analyzer feature."
"Customer Support is quite complex."
